Quinn's case .

Poor Quinn. he was a hard-work-
ing miner. savpd up a few thous-
ands. placed it In the crafty hands
of Frankel & Co.. and saw it swept
away. He now lies in the City
prison Of San Francisco, on a charge
Of an assault with deadly weapop,
and hasn't dollar between him
and the poor house.
In few years we will hear OF
the FranGels enjoying themselves
on Quinn's hard earned money in
some German watering place, and
poor Quinn will be dead aud buried.
If you want people to settle up Ne
vada, there must be less of these
cursed brokers' scandals.

YESTERDAYS KsAAZE.
q senator stewards Residence has
/ a Marrow Escape

About half past 2 o'clock yester-
day afternoon, fire was discovered
IN Senator Stewards house and an
alarm promptly sounded. The fire
companies were promptly on the
spot but before they arrived the
water was turned on from Stewart :
artesIan well tank, holding 70 90
gallons. Tins water kept the flames
In check until the engines arrived
This tank saved the building.
When the fremen arrived they
found the rear Of the house mass
of flame, but by prompt and ener-
getic work they confined it to the
rear addition where it orIsinated,
and saved the main building. AS
it was however considerable dam
aye was done by the taking up of
carpets and the moving of furnl
ture.
The damage will reach between
$500 and 81, 900, fully covered by
insurance in the Hartford Company.
The fire was supposed to have orig
mated bv some of Mrs. Stewards
grandchildren playing in the rear
room and spread so rapidly that
ladies in the upper pant of the house
barely got out in time TO avoid be-
ing suffocated.
Mrs. Stewart desires to return
thanks through the APPEAL for
the gallant services rendered by
the fireman and neighbors who as
sisted in saving the property.

Cheap Advertising.

Yesterday the Clerk Of the Board
of City Trustees was circulatin
about among the newspaper officers
soliciting bids for the work of pub
fishing a city ordinance. The
Union made an appraisement of its
advertising columns aud offered to
do the work for nothing.
No Other paper in the city can
afford to do work at these figures
and pay it's hands every Saturday
night. AS it is a general rule to
charge regular merchants less for
advertising than transient city or
county advertising, they ought to
be able to make pretty reasonable
terms with an Office that is willing
to take such advertising gratis.
1t seems rather imposing on the
Clerk of the Board to compel him
to tramp all over the city and call
on the multltudinous newspaper Of
fees and ask for bids.
As the newspaper Offices increase;
and they are increasing yearly, the
duties of the Clerk become more
ouerous, and it looks to US as if he
should be allowed a reasonable
mileage to reimburse the loss Of
shoe leather.

Hannah MOOre's Plan.

Hannah Moore, when she was
told a tale against anyone in her
village, usually answered; Come
we will go and ask if that be true.
The effect was something wonder
full. The tale-bearer taken aback,
would begin to say: Well, per-
haps there may have been a mis-
take" and beg that no notice be
taken Of the matter. But no, the
good lady would go there and then,
taking the scandal-monger with her
to make inquiry and compare ac-
counts. If all tale bearers could be
treated IN this way, few tales would
be told.-Dayton Times.

that he was very favorably i'm
pressed with the prospects before

who will strike water on any one of
the quarter sections it owns in that
valley, while the State Is willing to
pay 81. 90 per foot, no matter what
q, pth Is reached, provided water
can be found. Mr.. Orr says that
he will begin operat ions very soon,
and that If he succeeds. of which
he entertains no doubt, the C.. =. r.

all are of friendly nature. The

The book is likely to create contre-

The result Of yesterdays election on
the prohibition amendment Is in
doubt this morning. The likelihood
is that the amendment has Lost, but
this Is not quite cure. East Tennessee
appears to have gone for prohibition
by something like 10000 majority, and
II is the uncertainty In that quarter
that renders the general result prob
lemstical. Eatimates,irom Nashville In.
dictate the belief there to DO that the
amendment has failed TO carry by
more than 10000 and less
than 1900. Shelby county has
gone against prohibition by about
5000. and Davidson county by about
1000. The election throughout the
State was very orderly. There was
no trouble anywhere. In many cities,
as In Memphis, women spent the day
in slectloneering, serving refresh
ments At the polls ard pleading
with the voters. Charges OF corup.
den ere made by Memphis prohibit
tIonisis against their opponents, and q
determination was expressed to make
q contest. Four men were arrested
charged with repeating. There was
but little excitement on the
streets at night, owing TO the
inability Of each side 10 decide
vaether or not II was the time to
how. The positive siiirmalions from
Nashville that the amendment had
failed did not carry conviction for the
reason that they were knowi 10 be
gusss work, there being no bIsis Of
calculation. II seems to DO certain
that Est Tennessee has gone for pro-
hibition and Middle Tenn sssee against
Il, and tina, Yves, Tennessee Is also
against II.
